Great Big Sea
Cod Liver Oil

I'm a young married man and I'm tired of life
Ten years I've been wed to a pale sickly wife,
She's nothing to do only sit there and cry
Praying and praying to God she would die.
A friend of my own came to see me one day
He told me my wife she was pining away
He afterwards told me that she would get strong
If I get a bottle from dear Dr John.

Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.

I bought her a bottle, well just for to try
And the way that she drank it you'd think she might die
I bought her another, it vanished the same
And then she got cod liver oil on the brain.
I bought her another, she drank it no doubt,
And then she began to get terrible stout,
And when she got stout well of course she got strong
And I became jealous of dear Dr John.

Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.

Me house it resembles a great doctor's shop
Its covered in bottles from bottom to top
Well early the morning the kettle does boil
You would swear it was singing of cod liver oil.

Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
If me wife don't stop drinking
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.

If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
If me wife don't stop drinking
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John

You would swear it was singing of cod liver oil.
Well early the morning the kettle does boil
Its covered in bottles from bottom to top
Me house it resembles a great doctor's shop

If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John

And I became jealous of dear Dr John.
And when she got stout well of course she got strong

Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John

Praying and praying to God she would die.
She's nothing to do only sit there and cry
Ten years I've been wed to a pale sickly wife,
I'm a young married man and I'm tired of life

the blessings

won't look down

a whole new world

red light

intentalo tu

it's late

king for a day

the last payday

mama

train train

only you (and you alone)

chippie

tuesday's gone

(lying here with) linda on my mind

lookin' through the eyes of a child

more than you'll ever know

stop living the lie

with a wonder and a wild desire

il cavallo di legno

everybody loves to hear a bird sing
